2025-09-05cpufreq: Drop redundant freq_table parameterZihuan Zhang
Since commit e0b3165ba521 ("cpufreq: add 'freq_table' in struct cpufreq_policy"), freq_table has been stored in struct cpufreq_policy instead of being maintained separately. However, several helpers in freq_table.c still take both policy and freq_table as parameters, even though policy->freq_table can always be used. This leads to redundant function arguments and increases the chance of inconsistencies. This patch removes the unnecessary freq_table argument from these functions and updates their callers to only pass policy. This makes the code simpler, more consistent, and avoids duplication.

2025-03-17cpufreq: Init cpufreq only for present CPUsJacky Bai
for_each_possible_cpu() is currently used to initialize cpufreq. However, in cpu_dev_register_generic(), for_each_present_cpu() is used to register CPU devices which means the CPU devices are only registered for present CPUs and not all possible CPUs. With nosmp or maxcpus=0, only the boot CPU is present, lead to the cpufreq probe failure or defer probe due to no cpu device available for not present CPUs. Change for_each_possible_cpu() to for_each_present_cpu() in the above cpufreq drivers to ensure it only registers cpufreq for CPUs that are actually present.

2025-02-07cpufreq: virtual: Stop setting cpufreq_driver->attr fieldViresh Kumar
The cpufreq core now handles this for basic attributes, including boost frequencies, the driver can skip setting them. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Acked-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael@kernel.org>
2024-10-29cpufreq: add virtual-cpufreq driverDavid Dai
Introduce a virtualized cpufreq driver for guest kernels to improve performance and power of workloads within VMs. This driver does two main things: 1. Sends the frequency of vCPUs as a hint to the host. The host uses the hint to schedule the vCPU threads and decide physical CPU frequency. 2. If a VM does not support a virtualized FIE(like AMUs), it queries the host CPU frequency by reading a MMIO region of a virtual cpufreq device to update the guest's frequency scaling factor periodically. This enables accurate Per-Entity Load Tracking for tasks running in the guest.
